[amsat-bb] W1AW/7 from Arizona, starting Wednesday 0000 UTC

[Patrick STODDARD (WD9EWK/VA7EWK)]

Hi!

Starting tomorrow (Wednesday 0000 UTC, or 8pm Eastern time 
Tuesday evening), W1AW/7 will be on the air from Arizona.  If
you want to work this call on the HF bands and in different modes
on those bands, there is a nice schedule posted at: 

http://www.n7cw.com/Schedule.html

Satellite activity is not listed on that page, as I am managing 
the satellite activity on behalf of the coordinators of the Arizona
W1AW/7 activity (Ned AA7A and Bud N7CW).  John K8YSE, 
operating his K8YSE/7 station from DM43 in the Phoenix area, 
and I will be on the satellites as W1AW/7 during the upcoming
week.  Please give us a call, and get in the log.  As with the other 
W1AW/x activity, ARRL will be handling the QSLing as listed on 
their web site, and QSOs will also be uploaded to LOTW.  

Among other times, I will use W1AW/7 for demonstrations at the 
Scottsdale Amateur Radio Club's Springfest hamfest on Saturday (15
March) morning instead of my own call.  I will try to get on the birds
in the weeknights, and at other times on the weekend in addition to 
the hamfest.  K8YSE will be on other passes as W1AW/7 using his
Arizona station, based on his availability.  If there are other satellite 
operators who can operate from Arizona and want to help with this 
state's W1AW/7 effort on the satellites, please contact me directly.

Thanks, and 73!
